Chapter 11 The Long Spear and Short Cannon of Happiness Island
When Russell returned to the captain's cabin with Amirus' clothes in his arms, he clearly felt the airship vibrating and descending.
"This wound..."
Feeling the pain becoming more and more obvious, Russell hissed and took a breath.
Because he hit the wall when he was knocked back, Russell still felt numbness in his hands. The injury on his back seemed to have become more serious after such a collision.
The blood flowed out faster, and the dark red traces gradually faded, making Russell's clothes wet.
Just looking at the blood stains, one would think that the injury was very serious.
But this is indeed just a flesh wound. The bullet took away a small piece of flesh, but happened to not damage the muscles and bones. The only problems are probably blood loss and infection.
After Amirus took over the clothes, he did not avoid Russell's gaze and put the clothes on directly in the captain's cabin.
Russell politely looked away.
Only then did he notice that there were some bits and pieces on the table next to Amirus.
Those should be the bandages and hemostatic spray that Amilus dug out from the captain's cabin when he was looking for clothes.
"Let me help you deal with it first."
The old elf said this, and showed the brand on the spray to Annan: "This is Ampoule Biomedical's 'Pain Relief No. 5'. It has the functions of sterilizing, stopping bleeding and preventing infection, and can instantly paralyze wound tissue to block pain.
.”
"Oh, I've heard of this..."
Russell nodded: "It seems to be a countermeasure drug specially designed to deal with acid weapons and flamethrowers."
He turned his back to the old elf and took off his shirt. His clothes almost stuck to the wound, and he grinned in pain when he pulled them off.
The old elf skillfully removed the rags stuck to Russell's wound. After spraying it four or five times in a row, he picked up the dressing and medical bandage and bandaged Russell's wound.
His movements were extremely skillful and neat, and he said to Russell in a very relaxed tone: "Yes, but gunshot wounds can also be used. Although it is not as good as the 'Healing' series, for this level of injury, this level of early treatment is enough."
.
"I will re-treat you after that, and you should be almost fine tomorrow morning."
"Why?"
Russell was startled.
After getting off the airship, do you still want to follow Lord Amirus?
"Why," Amyrus asked in surprise, "Do you have anywhere else to go on Happy Island?"
"...Not yet."
Russell told the truth.
Although he knew that his uncle was a director of Tianen Group, Russell didn't even know his name, where he lived, or what he looked like.
According to Russell's understanding, his uncle was married. Not only that, he even had a daughter...the daughter was already in her teens.
From his uncle's words, Russell felt that the other party's family relationship did not seem to be very harmonious.
After learning the news, Russell no longer wanted to go to his house to disturb him. It would be bad if their family started to quarrel.
—— Originally, he needed his uncle's care and arrangement of work for him, so he had to go elsewhere to minimize the trouble for the other party.
This is proper courtesy.
Even if he will be assigned a residence after officially taking office...but now he is indeed homeless.
Russell originally planned to find a hotel for one night after landing. At least he wouldn't have to sleep in the park like a stray cat.
After I report to Tianen Group tomorrow, I will naturally have a place to stay tomorrow night.
but……
"Since you don't have a place to live, you might as well come with me. My private medical team can help you deal with your injuries in the shortest possible time, and I guarantee there won't be any scars. These are some insignificant rewards."
Amilus spoke in a gentle tone and said slowly: "No matter where you want to go tomorrow, I can send you to your destination in time. Whether it's an aeroplane or a helicopter... I can also lend it to you if you want.
One as a means of transportation."
It's said to be a loan, but actually it's just a gift.
It's just a more euphemistic and more acceptable way of saying it.
"It doesn't matter what the scars are..."
Russell murmured and smiled bitterly: "But there is no need for gifts or anything like that. It's enough if you can stay with me for one night and have something to eat."
Although for Amirus, Russell did save his life; but Russell knew in his heart that he actually did nothing at all, and the real hero was actually Bad Sun.
It's okay to have a meal or something...but it would be too much to ask for a gift shamelessly.
But Russell did not completely reject the elder's kindness: "As for the shelter and wound treatment, I'll leave it to you."
While they were chatting, the old man had already treated Russell's wounds and was wiping his bloody hands with a handkerchief.
At this time, with a burst of vibration and shaking, the airship had landed on the ground.
Before leaving the captain's cabin, Amilus pulled out a data cable from behind his ear and asked Russell: "Then let's add our contact information first?"
"good……"
Russell nodded.
He took off a dust cover from the prosthetic hand on his left arm, revealing a row of interfaces of different models. He took the data cable Amirus pulled out from behind his ear and inserted it into it.
In front of Russell's eyes, a green frame emerged, and the fonts appeared and flashed quickly:
[Warning: Attempting physical connection...]
[The accessing party sets the connection rules to -conservative mode]
[This physical link will not unlock data exchange permissions]
[This physical connection will not unlock administrator rights]
Immediately afterwards, Amirus's personal business card appeared.
ARMILUS (ARMILUS-10/3) advanced authority user
【Thoth Spirit】Director, Director of the Third R&D Department
[Thoth Spirit Energy Branch in Xingfu Island] General Manager
The above is a personal portrait of Amirus. With Russell's thoughts, he can switch left and right, switching back and forth between the three images of half body front, half body sideways, and full body front.
There are three buttons below:
[Follow] [Report] [Collect to category]
If higher-level permissions are turned on, there are also options such as "Data Exchange", "Information Management", "Contract Management", "Memory Management", etc.
After Russell clicked "Follow", he saw that the "Follow" button quickly jumped from the "Following" status to "Follow Each Other".
After a little hesitation, Russell added Amirus to the "Teacher" friend category.
"Not many people have my business card, so I won't block it here."
Amirus added to Russell: "If anything happens, you can contact me at any time. I will reply when I am free."
The method of adding friends is very strict.
In addition to face-to-face physical connections, only those who know the other party's personal identification code can click "Follow" remotely. In addition to trustworthy real friends, the only people who can do this are those who know the personal identification code.
Only your boss can do it.
Russell followed Amirus and left the captain's cabin.
Although the wound was properly treated and bandaged, his bloody appearance still looked very scary.
The passengers who were about to get off the plane were shocked when they saw his appearance. However, they did not do anything.
No one spoke to Russell, asked him what happened, and no one took pictures or pointed at him. Instead, they pretended not to see him and regarded Russell as nothing.
The attitude of avoiding him and the shock and fear hidden in their eyes made Russell stunned for a moment.
...What are they afraid of?
And at this time.
The rumble of a helicopter came from not far away.
As a large area of shadow covered the area, three armed helicopters approached the airship that had just landed on the ground without warning.
Just seeing the appearance of the helicopter made Russell stunned——
There is nothing special about the larger helicopters on both sides. They are painted in pitch-black matte paint, and if they are flying at night, they may be able to sneak into the night silently.
However, the smaller helicopter in the middle...is painted with an unusually conspicuous pink primer, just like itasha.
Slogans with different colors and cute fonts were printed on the helicopter, such as "Full of energy, Xiao Liuli", "Are you feeling happy today too", "The secret of happiness is a smile on your face".
There is also a set of expensive-looking laser devices on both sides of it, which can project the logo of "Tian'en Daily" that can be seen clearly in all four directions and is as big as half a helicopter.
Russell had never seen such a posture before in Sogo Island.
At sunset, the pink helicopter hangs high in the sky, and its dazzling projection makes it look like a pink neon sun.
The other two larger helicopters landed on both sides first.
They stopped in the air when they were still close to the ground and hung down a rope ladder.
The huge wind pressure from the helicopter forced the passengers who were about to get off the airship back. Most people exclaimed and dispersed from the door, hiding back in their seats. Amirus grabbed Russell's shoulders and motioned for him to stand.
behind yourself.
"...Are these people here to pick you up?"
Russell called out the virtual keyboard with his mind, tapped his right hand repeatedly in the void, and sent a private message to Amirus with the friend he had just added.
"Not really."
Amirus chuckled and replied with a message: "This is just a media reporter who was called by me.
"As for the remaining two helicopters, Tian'en Daily prepared... personal security for this young reporter in order to ensure the three interview elements of 'correct interview attitude,' 'clear interview content,' and 'safety of interviewers.'
"
After that, Amirus added another sentence.
"This not only protects her, but also urges her to be as objective and responsible as possible in her reporting."
...media, reporters?
Russell turned back to confirm the equipment on the three armed helicopters.
Except for the slightly smaller one in the middle, the other two are visually equipped with missiles, rockets, 25mm aerial cannons, and even anti-fortification bombing weapons. And even the mini helicopter in the middle is equipped with multiple machine guns and anti-aircraft guns.
Tank missile.
——These three helicopters have twelve machine guns in total.
Russell's expression was a little subtle.
Do you reporters from Happy Island all use "long guns and short guns" against interviewees like this?
